Flappers

Our bodies have special wrappers,
With little tiny one way flappers.
There are millions in our skin.
Water gets out, but never in.

I sweat buckets if it's hot.
If it's cold, then I do not.
Everytime that I warm up,
Then I tend to puddle up.

If I'm hot, my flappers flip
And my skin begins to drip.
But you know, if I get cold
Then my flappers start to fold.

What then if my flapperstat
Forgot how hot to open at?

I would swell up like a hog
If I had a water clog.
It would rust my flooded tummy.
My bones would be all wet and gummy.

My brain would float inside my head.
I would be sold as a water bed.
If my sweat could not get out
My nose would be a water spout.

My feet would look like porky pies.
Fish would swim inside my eyes.
My belt would bust from my big belly
And I would walk like jiggly jelly.

My arms would be like ballpark franks.
My behind as big as Sherman tanks.

But...
If my flappers wouldn't close
I would leak like a garden hose.
All my blood would turn to dust.
My tongue would be a reddish crust.
My skin would split like crusted leather.
I couldn't hold my bones together.

My...
Well you get the picture

To make sure that you won't leak
Check your flapperstat each week.
